I'm going to guess that's from the last year or two of the Silvertone line. For many years, their logo was the distinctive script signature, as shown below.

The one on yours is a very plain all-caps sans serif font that I haven't really seen. I also notice it doesn't say "Sears" on it anywhere. It looks Japanese to me, like a Sanyo or similar other Japanese radio that Sears would have "badge engineered".
